Drew couldn't bare looking at Ollie. He's been a total letdown to his granddad his whole life. His granddad raised him, poured all his effort into him, sent him to the best university, gave him the best material life.
"No wonder you didn't wanna go study abroad." Ollie slumped on the sofa. "No wonder you come back every month..."
"Drew, are you outta your mind?" Wilson snapped back to reality, then looked at Rosalynn. "Can I bail now? I don't want to be around this nutjob."
"Hold on." Rosalynn crossed her legs, lightly tapping her knee. "Don't you want to know what would've happened if you'd busted out of the old house today?"
Wilson paused.
Drew looked at her.
"What would happen if I busted out?" Wilson felt a chill run down his spine. "No... If he was gonna frame me, I could defend myself... unless..."
Wilson's no fool. He knew something was up.
"You planned to kill me?" Wilson looked at Drew, horror in his eyes, and even Ollie looked shocked.
Rosalynn clapped her hands, and the door opened. A gaunt man was shoved in.
"Who's this man?" Wilson glanced at him, sure he wasn't a local.
"Drew's hired thug." Rosalynn said casually. "If you'd made it out of the house, per his agreement with Drew, you would've ended up dead in the river. Dead men tell no tales."
